Thanks for the hint. Based on your solution, I came up with a shorter
version of my script. Now the two files appear in the window, but
there are still 3 TextViews instead of 2.

---
#!/usr/bin/python

import sys

import pygtk
import gtk

import gettext
gettext.install('meld')

# Adding meld's stuff to the path
sys.path += [ '/usr/lib/meld' ]

import filediff
import meldapp
import prefs

files = [ 'old.txt', 'new.txt' ]

app = meldapp.MeldApp()
app.widget.hide()

window = gtk.Window()
doc = filediff.FileDiff(app.prefs, len(files))
def cleanup():
   app.scheduler.remove_scheduler(doc.scheduler)
app.scheduler.add_task(cleanup)
app.scheduler.add_scheduler(doc.scheduler)
doc.set_files(files)

window.add(doc.widget)
window.connect('delete-event', gtk.main_quit)
window.show_all()

gtk.main()

The output mentioned in my former letter is still the same (that could
be related to the "there is one more TextView than needed" issue):
